Yeah - I thought that too.
But while it
may be more likely that someone might want to test the vest, if he's attacked when not wearing it, he's going to get stabbed.
That means that unless the school/police can somehow give some assurance to protect him, should they really be asking him to remove it?
If there were no knives in school, he could wear it with no risk. Hence if wearing it is a
greater risk than not wearing it, then rather a lot of kids must be carrying knives in that school.
